(EDCO), the City’s franchised trash hauler. Trash accounts totaling $7,895 were levied on the FY 2022/23 property tax roll, covering delinquent FY 2021/22 trash charges.
For Fiscal Year 2022/23, EDCO has identified 266 delinquent accounts totaling $28,716 in EDCO charges that are more than two months in arrears. EDCO mailed a notice to all property owners to which trash service was rendered and advised them that unpaid accounts were assigned to the City for collection action. On February 2, 2023, EDCO provided a listing to the City of the 266 delinquent accounts (Exhibit 3).

The City Council finds that the storage, accumulation, collection and disposal of solid waste is a matter of public concern, in that improper control of such matters creates a public nuisance, can lead to air pollution, fire hazards, illegal dumping, insect breeding, rodent infestation, pollution to surface waters and other problems affecting the health,welfare, and safety of the residents of this and surrounding cities. The City Council further finds that the periodic collection of solid waste from all real properties with Generators in the City benefits all persons in the City as well as the greater community. Accordingly, the collection of solid waste in the City is a mandatory service and all owners of real property with Generators as defined in Section
13. 16.020 are made liable for the payment of such fees as may be charged from time to time by the City's Contractor. The City Council further declares that the regulations provided in this chapter are designated to eliminate or alleviate such problems and to provide procedures complying with requirements placed upon the City by other regulatory bodies.
